I just realize I now have to bug Itunes to prorate me on the Multi-pass. Ugh that should be fun.

What's a pro-rate-you mean like rebate?

From her fanclub

It was announced today that Prospect Park has halted production of One Life to Live and will remain on hold until a lawsuit with ABC is resolved.

I contacted Erika and she asked that we share the following from her:

"When these issues are worked out between Prospect Park and ABC/Disney, we will resume, but unfortunately there is no timetable. I sincerely thank all of you for watching and supporting us and keep your fingers crossed for a speedy resolution."

While this was news we wish we didn't have to share, please know the club will keep you informed when further news is available.

Sincerely,

ESFC

I don't think we should worry too much. People have been jumping to conclusions since day one!!

Pro-rate is sort of like rebating as in paying for just the episodes given...I first heard that term when I worked for a satellite company and bills were prorated if someone cancelled after already paying days in advance.

I don't think that Erika would lie, but we have no idea if Erika was given any additional information beyond what we saw in the LA Times. She just parroted what was said in the newspaper.

See, this doesn't make sense to me at all. What does the lawsuit have to do with OLTL filming? If there were a cease and desist in place, I'd love to believe GH would have stopped production, if anything. It's not like ABC is arguing who holds the rights to these shows.

PP needs to come clean or they need to ask everyone to stop talking!

You just gotta love Robin. LOL

   NOBODY PUTS #DORIAN IN THE CLOSET:) When #OLTL #PPP went hiatus-I hauled to #Stamford & got my 1982 portrait-safely storing in bobble wrap:)

Its entirely possible I used the wrong word as my brain is fried. But essentially I'm halfway through my 20 ep pass on Itunes and I want to see if they'll credit my account for half the multipass price for the eps we won't be getting (at least for the foreseeable future). I'm not sure if they'll do it but I figure it doesn't hurt to ask.

I'm oddly comforted that Slezak commented. But I would probably be comforted by Slezak reading the phone book since I've associated her with kindness & serenity since I was 7.

I don't think they would until it's officially announced? I still have a multipass on both shows as well that's active.

What is beyond eye-roll worthy are the "fans" who are posting (mainly elsewhere) basically "I told you so--that this would happen over a year ago."

1982? Whatchu talkin' 'bout Robin?

I wouldn't argue the point with her in her current state...

The dorian Protrait on OLTL was done in 1982

and add Hunter's family in.

Seems like PP is just as stupid and unreliable as ABC.

Somehow I just knew this wouldn't work out. I don't even think AMC is coming back either. It has a shot. But, only if this was because a)the lawsuit b)they only had money to keep one and kept AMC.

Tsk, tsk. What would MEK say about your pessimism?

I just wish I still cared as much this time around.

A friend called it a mercy killing... I wouldn't go quite that far.

No way, Cassie commissioned that portrait for Dorian in 1994 when she bought and remodeled Marty's house. Perhaps it's based off of a picture from 1982 and they just added her signature mid-'90s big auburn hair, but I doubt it. Alex had a similar portrait at the time which hung over the mantle at Alexandria (Asa's house redubbed).

Mercy killing is harsh. It was 40 half hour eps- that would be like less than a month of network style eps- every soap has had a month or two far worse than PP OLTL without cries for mercy killing. It wasn't perfect but it had some very good stuff and the potential was there. I think it started to hit a stride the last 8ish eps.

It seems odd--I thought the general consensus was PP's OLTL had some major issues but was pretty good--andnow suddenly everyone's acting like it was the worst the show ever had been.
